The entire Greek philosophy revolves around the importance of justice. It is an abstract idea, and it is difficult to define it in fixed terms. As it is seen differently by different thinkers. Aristotle regards justice as a virtue but it is more than a virtue. It is virtue in action. In Aristotle's classification of justice, a subcategory of particular justice is distributive justice.
According to Aristotle, this form of justice is the most powerful law to prevent any revolution. As this justice belief in the proper and proportionate distribution of resources like office, post, honour as per their requirement is a citizen of a state. The distribution of goods and wealth is merit-based. Aristotle does not believe in the democratic or oligarchic methods of justice only those citizens will receive who contribute to the highest level in support of the state. Because the virtuous people are few. Most of the offices will be given to those few only.
